Both BOTOX and Dysport are proteins derived from botulinum toxin type A, which inhibits the muscle contractions that contribute to the development of wrinkles, lines, and creases. In a brief treatment from our Licensed Nurse Injector, BOTOX or Dysport is injected into the muscles below the affected areas via a tiny needle. BOTOX requires no downtime for recovery, and most patients see the desired results within three to 10 days following treatment. Dysport, like BOTOX, also requires no downtime, but patients tend to see results as much as one to two days earlier than BOTOX, making it the more appropriate injection for a quicker fix.

Some of the more pronounced wrinkles on the face are caused by repeated facial movements over a long period, causing them to become deeper and more profound. Botox is a medication that relaxes the facial muscles. It can be injected into the muscles that are causing the wrinkles, temporarily paralyzing them and fading the wrinkles that have long been there. Dermal fillers are used not to relax the muscle that shows lines, rather fill in areas that have lost volume, and Sculptra is a unique dermal filler. BOTOX and dermal fillers are used completely differently and work together well.
Wrinkles on the skin are a direct result of the repetitive action of the facial muscles. When BOTOX is used, the muscles are prevented from contracting, and therefore the wrinkles are softened or eliminated. Most often, with regularly scheduled BOTOX injections, the time between the injections gets longer.
BOTOX is used for a variety of cosmetic and non-cosmetic purposes and has been safely used since the early 1990’s. The FDA approved it for the use of frown lines in 2002.
The importance of seeking out a licensed injector with skill and experience cannot be overstressed. Your provider should be a board-certified Plastic Surgeon or supervised by one such as at Neaman Medi Spa. Be wary of anyone who gives injections 'on the side.' You want an injector who has studied facial anatomy and will customize the planned injections to your face. A new injector may inject too much, or they may inject into the wrong muscles. Being accurate to within measurements as little as one millimeter is critical in producing the best result.
Your face will have a lack of movement in the areas treated. However, a highly-trained licensed injector will know precisely how much BOTOX to inject to achieve the relaxed look but still maintain a natural appearance with the ability to allow expression. The goal is to relax the muscles, not to paralyze them.
BOTOX is often injected info glabellar lines, also known as frown lines, between the eyebrows. BOTOX is also commonly used to relax wrinkles around the eyes or crow's feet, as well as the horizontal lines across the forehead.
Several companies make products comparable to BOTOX, such as Dysport and Xeomin. While each has a slightly different formulation, they all work the same way to block the nerve impulses of the injected muscle to stop the creation of wrinkles.
Our highly trained nurse injectors are experts in BOTOX and Dysport treatments. We understand the impact that even a subtle change can have on a person's confidence and self-esteem and want to help you feel your best by enhancing your natural beauty.
